Defamation Bill 2006: Committee Stage
4:00 pm
Ivor Callely (Fianna Fail)
As Ms Justice Denham said, I believe the jury should be able to compare the value of what courts usually award to people in personal injury actions as compensation in a notional remedy in both incidences. The lame do not walk after an award of compensation and the defamed do not cease to have been defamed after an award of damages.
